Podium vs TokiQue

Podium keeps speakers on time—without breaking your flow. Build a talk from timed segments, hit start, and your countdown follows you everywhere: a full-screen podium view you can read from the lectern, your Apple Watch, the Lock Screen, and the Dynamic Island. Color zones shift from green to gold to red as your time runs down, so you feel your pacing without staring at numbers. GLANCE FROM ANYWHERE • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with Pause, Skip, and +1 minute controls • Apple Watch app mirrors the run on your wrist—zone colors, what's next, and a haptic nudge before time's up • Podium mode: a big, glanceable countdown built for the stage BUILT FOR REAL TALKS • Split any talk into timed segments—intro, demo, Q&A—and always see what's next • +1 minute when the room runs long, without losing the thread • Optionally, overrun can keep counting so you know exactly how far past you are Whether you're giving a conference keynote, a sprint demo, a sales pitch, a lightning talk, or running a Toastmasters meeting, Podium helps you land your point and sit down on time.
